I have been trying to learn node.js. I am trying to create a simple node.js web api and a html-javascript front end to login using Facebook auth and store Facebook id in Mongodb.
I was able to do it by following tutorials available online.
Now I want to segregate the code into multiple files but when I try to create a route "user" and expose functions via exports. I am getting the following error.
module.exports.userLogin = function(req,res){
      ^ SyntaxError: Unexpected token .
    at Module._compile (module.js:437:25)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:467:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:356:32)

EDIT#1
module.exports.userLogin = function(req,res){
    graph.setAccessToken(req.session.fb.access_token);
    graph.get("/me", function(err, data) {
        if(err){
            console.log('Error obtaining data.');
            return;
        }
        console.log(data);
    }
}
EDIT # 2
var mongo = require('mongodb'),
graph = require('fbgraph');
exports.userLogin = function(req,res){
    graph.setAccessToken(req.session.fb.access_token);
    graph.get("/me", function(err, data) {
        if(err){
            console.log('Error obtaining data.');
            return;
        }
        console.log(data);
    }
}
This is all I have in user route.
Actually, I was making a real silly mistake, I left a comma in front of  graph = require('fbgraph') instead of semi colon.
After fixing this syntax error, I am getting this error.

                You have a typo here:
graph.get("/me", function(err, data) {
    if(err){
        console.log('Error obtaining data.');
        return;
    }
    console.log(data);
}
It should be:
graph.get("/me", function(err, data) {
    if(err){
        console.log('Error obtaining data.');
        return;
    }
    console.log(data);
}); /* Note the added parenthesis here */
Also use exports.userLogin instead of module.exports.userLogin
